The foil layer is an oxygen-impermeable layer.
Thin plastics can slowly allow gases to cross, and without the foil layer the shelf life of the contents would be reduced.

But, that's Mauna Loa in a nutshell. The lava coming up is relatively gas-free so doesn't do the explosive expansion when it gets to the surface. ("Diet Coke and Mentos" is a surprisingly accurate metaphor/description for why volcanos explosively erupt).
Most previous Mauna Loa eruptions have just been flowing lava without a huge amount of ash release (comparitively), so the damage done by the eruption is much more localised than e.g. Mt St Helens for similar amounts of emitted lava.

No, that's the fissure extension that the lava was emenating from.

It has overflowed to the NE flank, so mostly refilled?

And are not supported in anything newer than Win98, but are fully supported in modern Linux.

Reply to A 100 sided die by DerMagicSheep
Not a valid die. Opposite number should total (dX+1) where X is the die value. I can see a 76 and a 35 which should be opposed.
Also valid dice will have the same values totalled on each side of any plane through the centre.
